ABSTRACT:
A mower-conditioner having a pair of rotatable conditioning rolls cooperable to condition severed crop material passing therebetween is disclosed wherein the bearings rotatably supporting each conditioning roll are recessed into the end of the conditioning roll. The recessed bearings are mounted within a cup-shaped housing, the conditioning roll drive shaft being affixed to a support plate recessed from the end of the conditioning roll to permit the recessed mounting of the bearings. Hexagonal bore bearings and short throated clamp yokes are utilized to eliminate the need for locking devices and minimize the overall transverse width of the mower-conditioner. Timing flanges to permit a timed intermeshing relationship between the conditioning rolls is formed as a part of the conditioning roll drive shaft.
